00:00It was very sad for me and my family.
00:04People probably don't know, but my husband and my children are Catholic.
00:07So it was quite a poignant moment, especially on Easter Monday.
00:11Seeing him having had the services on Easter Sunday
00:15and not realizing that he would be gone in 24 hours was quite moving.
00:19He was somebody who was very humble.
00:22He was all about service and humility.
00:24And I think that that is his legacy,
00:26one of service to the Catholic Church and to the 1.4 billion people
00:29of the Catholic faith all around the country, all around the world, I should say.
